2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost Recall 12V368: Tire Label Error

Recall 12V368 covers 10 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost vehicles with incorrect tire labels. Owners received corrected labels for the 20-inch tires.

Rolls-Royce is recalling 10 2012 Ghost passenger vehicles under recall 12V368 because cars fitted with 20-inch tires have a tire information label that lists 19-inch tires. Wrong placard information can lead to tire inflation errors, tire failure, and a higher crash risk; the Rolls-Royce dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The tire information label on a 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost is the placard that tells an owner or tire shop which tire size belongs on the vehicle. It is supposed to match the tires installed on the car, so tire replacement and service work start from the correct specification.

On the affected Ghost vehicles, the car was built with 20-inch tires, but the label says the vehicle has 19-inch tires. The tire itself is not the recalled part. The defect is the inaccurate label, because it gives the wrong tire-size information for a vehicle equipped with a different wheel and tire package.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is most likely to notice the problem by reading the placard and comparing it with the tire size printed on the tire sidewall.

Not every 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost sedan is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific sedan is included.

What's the safety risk?

Incorrect tire placard information can lead an owner or shop to use the wrong tire pressure. Underinflation or overinflation can damage a tire, cause tire failure, and increase the risk of a crash. Confirm the corrected tire label is installed before relying on the placard pressure. Repair will be free at any franchised Rolls-Royce dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost is included in this recall.
  2. Inspect the tire information label and look for the incorrect 19-inch tire listing on a Ghost equipped with 20-inch tires.
  3. Contact a franchised Rolls-Royce dealer if your VIN is included and the corrected tire information label is missing.
  4. Reference recall number 12V368 when you call so the dealer can confirm the tire-label correction.
  5. Use the corrected 20-inch tire placard information when setting tire pressure until the label issue is resolved.

What happens at the repair

For this tire label recall, the remedy record says affected Rolls-Royce Ghost owners have already received corrected tire information labels, so Rolls-Royce will not send a separate owner notification letter for campaign 12V368. The corrected label fixes the mismatch between the 20-inch tires on the vehicle and the old label that listed 19-inch tires. If your VIN is included and your vehicle does not have the corrected label, contact a Rolls-Royce dealer and ask the service desk to confirm the recall remedy. The recall remedy is free.
